"The chamber eventually voted 25-22 in favor of a plan that would add about $34 million to the two-year, $38 billion operating budget adopted last year.

The proposal would direct about $173 million for addressing damage caused by last summer's wildfires that destroyed more than 300 homes and burned 1 million acres, as well as provide more than $54 million to address safety issues at Western State Hospital and aid other mental-health services.

It would also keep charter schools open by supplying them with $6.6 million from the state's Opportunity Pathways Account."
